Supported by Peter Thiel's Founders Fund, the artificial intelligence development platform Sentient has released an open-source AI search framework, claiming its performance surpasses that of major closed-source competitors.
The company announced the public release of Open Deep Search (ODS) on April 2, describing it as a high-performance, developer-friendly platform that can serve as an alternative to platforms like Perplexity AI and OpenAI's GPT-4o.
Sentient's ODS aims to empower developers through an open-source "Loyal AI" model, which the company claims retains the original intent of the developers.
The company's fingerprint recognition technology allows developers to protect intellectual property while maintaining the openness of the model—aimed at addressing the biggest challenge of open-source AI, which is monetizing models without centralization.
"Sentient co-founder and Indian Academy of Sciences professor Himanshu Tyagi believes: "AI should belong to the community, not be controlled by closed-source companies.
He added: "We keep a key principle in mind when building, monetizing, and providing open-source AI: the singularity of intelligence and the diversity of use cases.

Sentient's ODS achieved a 75.3% accuracy rate in the "Frames" benchmark, which measures factuality, retrieval, and reasoning capabilities for answering complex "multi-hop questions" that require integrating multiple sources.
The ODS score surpassed OpenAI's ChatGPT-4o Search Preview at 50.5% and Perplexity Sonar Reasoning Pro at 44.4%.
To prevent potential bias, Sentient ensured that its researchers did not have access to the Frames test set during the benchmarking process.

"Tyagi said: "Only closed-source solutions require independent verification because open-source solutions have no incentive to falsely report evaluation results.
Interest in the Sentient platform has been growing ahead of the ODS release. The company stated that it had accumulated over 1.8 million waitlist registrants before the launch.

The release of Sentient's new open-source search framework comes at a turning point in the development of open-source AI.
"Tyagi said: "As open-source AI solutions increasingly challenge the dominance of closed-source, we are witnessing a significant shift.
He added: "The advancements of DeepSeek in reasoning, the innovations of Manus in agency, and now our contributions to ODS through an advanced AI search framework all highlight this shift.
"Sentient's chief researcher, University of Washington professor Sewoong Oh, said: "As long as the right architecture is in place, open-source models can easily surpass closed-source giants. The results of these benchmarks validate our mission to create an open ecosystem that benefits all AI builders and users."
This release is also based on Sentient's previous momentum. In February, the company completed one of the largest NFT minting events to date, with over 650,000 participants gaining partial ownership of its AI models.
